Zerkalo

The Mirror.

Zerkalo, by Andrei Tarkovsky (which is one of those semi-[?]autobiographical films that shows a poster of the director's previous work in the movie, in this case one named after his name, Andrei Rublev, a great movie, always—four hours of greatness), also called Mirror, is a great, haunting movie starting with a sudden arrival across a beautiful field in Russia that ends, that moment, with the same man who came up, broke the smoking woman's fence, and then left, literally having waves of wind seeming to blow him back to her. But he doesn't go. Later in the movie, his memory reappears, if not his person.

The whole movie is just a shifting set of memories, a kaleidoscope. And a character, without quoting him for those (probably most) of the likely readers who haven't seen it, near the end talks about how everything will be okay.
